  Redskins | Washington works out two RBs    Mon Nov 13, 07:19 PM

Free-agent RBs Ronnie Hillman (Cowboys) and Daryl Richardson (Colts) worked out for the Washington Redskins Monday, Nov. 13, according to a source.

Footballguys view: With Rob Kelley (ankle, knee) down, Washington needs help at the position. We'll see Samaje Perine as the lead back and Chris Thompson continue as a valuable (and explosive) change-of-pace back. Hillman and Richardson are kind of the same player....speedy backs who can thrive in space.

Footballguys view: Watch for a guy like Ferguson to be brought back on the team's practice squad. Other than that, perhaps a player like Krieger-Coble could make it to the developmental squad too.

Pittsburgh Steelers RB Daryl Richardson was claimed off waivers by the Jacksonville Jaguars Monday, Dec. 26.

Footballguys view: Richardson is a speed back who could latch on with the Jaguars with a futures deal if he impresses this final week of the regular season. They needed to add him with T.J. Yeldon on Injured Reserve.

  Steelers | Pittsburgh makes roster moves    Sat Nov 19, 02:30 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers DE Cameron Heyward (pectoral) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Saturday, Nov. 19. The team also activated LB Bud Dupree (groin) from the Reserve/Injured list and promoted practice squad RB Daryl Richardson to their active roster.

Footballguys view: Dupree had four sacks as a rookie, and he's likely to provide at least a little bit of spark to a weak Steelers pass rush. With DeAngelo Williams ruled out (knee) in Week 11, the team needed some extra RB depth with Richardson.

Free-agent RB Daryl Richardson (Browns) was signed to a Reserve/Futures contract by the Pittsburgh Steelers Wednesday, Jan. 20.

Footballguys view: It's an interesting move for the Steelers, and dynasty owners in super super deep leagues may still be holding onto the speedy back. Richardson is incredibly fast, but he's not strong between the tackles.

  Jets | Running back situation up in the air    Thu May 21, 02:51 PM

New York Jets coach Todd Bowles said his team's running back situation may take until the preseason to sort out. RB's Chris Ivory, Bilal Powell, Zac Stacy, Stevan Ridley and Daryl Richardson all have experience at the position, but no one has broken out yet.

Footballguys view: Bowles has no attachment to any of the previous regime's running backs - we're looking at you Powell and Ivory - but Ridley is coming off a significant leg injury and Stacy faded during last year. There's room for everyone to get carries which hurts everyone's value right now. Until we see how things shake out more in camp, this is a situation to avoid.

The New York Jets signed RB Daryl Richardson, P Jake Schum and PK Andrew Furney to Reserve/Futures contracts Tuesday, Dec. 30.

  Jets | Sign seven to practice squad    Sun Aug 31, 07:18 PM

The New York Jets signed free-agents DT Tevita Finau, DL Kerry Hyder, SS Rontez Miles, TE Chris Pantale, OT Brent Qvale, RB Daryl Richardson and QB Matt Simms to the team's practice squad Sunday, Aug. 31. All seven players spent training camp with the team.

Footballguys view: Pantele and Richardson are players worth monitoring in super deep dynasty leagues. Richardson has the speed to break off big plays regularly, and he's tough to line up in the open field. Pantale has good hands and can work underneath routes.

  Jets | Greg Salas, Daryl Richardson making case for roster spots    Tue Jul 29, 09:44 PM

New York Jets WR Greg Salas had two difficult catches during practice Tuesday, July 29, and RB Daryl Richardson made several big runs. Dom Cosentino of The Star-Ledger believes both players have improved their chances of making the roster during training camp.

Footballguys view: Salas has always been a good route-runner, but he had trouble catching the ball earlier in his career with the Rams. Richardson was a starter for the Rams at the beginning of last season, but now he's trying to catch on as a reserve runner behind Chris Johnson and Chris Ivory with the Jets.

  Jets | Daryl Richardson on the bubble    Mon Jul 14, 10:43 PM

New York Jets RB Daryl Richardson (toe) will have to regain the speed and explosiveness that he showed as a rookie in 2012 if he is going to make the roster, according ESPNNewYork.com's Rich Cimini. Richardson's 2013 season was ruined by a turf-toe injury.

Footballguys view: Richardson was the starter at the beginning of the season last year for the Rams. He couldn't stay healthy to impress, and now he gets a fresh start with a new team. Richardson gives the team another speed back behind Chris Johnson and Chris Ivory, but he'll have to contribute on special teams if he wants to make the 53-man roster.

New York Jets RB Daryl Richardson (toe) has not participated during organized team activities because of a toe injury but should be ready for the start of training camp.

Footballguys view: Richardson is a speed back who can make plays in the open field. He'll give the Jets veteran depth this year and plays a lot like a poor man's version of Chris Johnson.

  Jets | Daryl Richardson claimed    Fri May 16, 04:56 PM

The New York Jets claimed RB Daryl Richardson off waivers from the St. Louis Rams Friday, May 16.

Footballguys view: Richardson was the starter for the Rams last year to begin the season, but he failed to stay healthy or impress. He's a fast back who can provide the Jets with a good change-of-pace in 2013. Richardson will compete for playing time behind Chris Johnson and Chris Ivory.

  Rams | Waive Daryl Richardson    Thu May 15, 05:36 PM

The St. Louis Rams waived RB Daryl Richardson Thursday, May 15.

Footballguys view: The Rams are moving on from the speedy back. The team used a top-75 pick on Tre Mason (Auburn) in the 2014 NFL draft, so their backfield needed more space. If healthy, Richardson can still make plays as a change-of-pace runner. We'll see if some team takes a chance on the speedster from Abilene Christian.

  Rams | Believe Daryl Richardson can compete for time    Sat Jan 18, 11:33 AM

St. Louis Rams general manager Les Snead said he believes RB Daryl Richardson will be able to compete for playing time next season after struggling with injuries this season. 'We've all seen what he can do. Some injuries derailed him a little bit. ... What you like about the whole thing is as you bring in more players, as we all grow here, there's more competition,' Snead said. Richardson could be a change-of-pace back for the team but will need to improve his pass catching and pass protection.

Footballguys view: Richardson still has speed, quickness and elusiveness. He'll compete to be the change of pace back behind Zac Stacy next year. Dynasty owners can likely scoop him up for a low price.
